Vi bjöds in att fira julafton med Urban och Anette med släkt och vänner. Hos dem var det JUL på riktigt. Efter rejält med väldigt god julmat var det dags för julklappar. Julklappsspelet som kan sluta med att julklappar distribuerats helt jämlikt och rättvist eller helt ojämlikt och orättvist, bara Urban blir utan... :-)
We were invited to celebrate Christmas Eve with Urban and Anette with family and friends. At their place it was CHRISTMAS for real. After plenty of very good Christmas food, it was time for presents. The Christmas game that can end up with Christmas gifts distributed perfectly equally and fairly or completely unequal and unfair, as long as Urban doesn't get any... :-)

Träds öde/Tree's fate
Vi for ut i skogen en sväng och blev ganska tagna av den förödelse som stormarna Sven och Ivar har åstadkommit. Alla dessa grandiosa träd som fallit! Vi tog med en liten släkting, som nu står helt blygsamt vid vår dörr.
We went out into the woods for a ride and was quite taken by the devastation caused by the storms and Sven and Ivar. All these grand trees that have fallen! We brought a small relative, who now stands quite modestly by our door.

Blir det en vit jul?/Will Christmas be white?
Plötsligt började det snöa ymnigt och vi började hoppas på en vit jul. Men nej, efter några timmar gick temperaturen över noll igen och det blev mer blött än vitt. Men det är ju några dagar kvar till jul så vi har inte tappat hoppet.
Suddenly it started snowing profusely and we began to hope for a white Christmas. But no, after a few hours the temperature went over zero centigrades again and it became more wet than white. But with a few days left to Christmas we haven't lost hope.

Säsongsblomma/Season flower
Denna tid på året kräver särskilda blommor, eller blomsterarrangemang. Turligt nog har medarbetare barn som gärna far på skolresa. Och för att finansiera resorna måste de sälja saker. Som blomarrangemang. Annars hade det inte funnits något i detta hushåll...
This time of the year demand certain flowers, or flower arrangements. Fortunately co workers have children that happily go on school field trips. And to finance the trips they have to sell things. Like flower arrangements. Otherwise there wouldn't have been one in this household...

Julstämning?/Christmas spirit?
Nästan allt är utrensat ur det stora rummet. Kvar är bara lite nödvändig utrustning för fortsatt målning o s v. Och gamla mattor. Och gammalt damm. Och en gammal katt. Men också lite julstämning.
Almost everything is cleared out from the large room. Left is only some necessary equipment for continued painting and so on. And old carpets. And old dust. And an old cat. But also a little bit of Christmas spirit.

Färgstark senhöst/Colorful late fall
Vi tittade ut mot närmaste grannen för några dagar sedan och möttes av ovanligt intensiva färger i den låga solens ljus. Dags att flytta in för vintern.
We looked out towards the closest neighbor a couple of days ago and were met by unusually intense colors in the light of the low sun. Time to move in for the winter.
